Responsibilities
As an intern, I was very lucky to be exposed to senior bankers and to be involved in the team meetings. I leaded on several projects on a time so I had to be able to adjust my calendar and prioritise the tasks.
Support & Guidance
My line manager was absolutely great and helpful and never refused to help on any topics ! IT was a little bit harder as I had a lot of issues
Culture
The culture was very great: giving responsibilities to interns, taking time to explain new topics, give time to have a balanced life
